Preface to the Second Edition

With the feedback from the practicing selenologists andresidents, more text and illustrations have been added so

as to make this book more handy for better interpretation

at bedside I am sure the book in the present format will

be more acceptable and useful to the residents, sonologistsand practitioners in their day-to-day practice

Since the introduction of ultrasound (US), this modalityhas evolved from its primitive nature to its presentglamorous status Its popularity in radiology has alwaysbeen due to its cost-effectiveness, easy availability andnoninvasive nature Its diagnostic role has been explored

in every organ system and its usefulness felt every time.Its support in therapeutic techniques is unparalleled.Radiology without ultrasound is unimaginable

Almost always realtime US is the initial investigativetool in the radiology department Many a time, thismodality is enough to establish a diagnosis and alwaysprovides a direction for further evaluation Its uniquenesslies in its operator-dependent nature As the ultrasonologistscans through the region of interest, recognition andinterpretation of the important findings are important forestablishing and imaging diagnosis It is also imperative toknow the various conditions producing a particularsonographic finding Only ultrasound can be judiciouslyused to answer the question posed to the radiologist Thisbook is a special effort to provide a concise knowledge ofthe differential diagnosis of a sonographic finding A list ofthe various clinical conditions and their short description

is the main feature of the text The information has beenkept concise and unnecessary repetition avoided Linediagrams and illustrations have been added to support thetext The aim of this book is to assist the sonologist withlogical interpretation of the scan I hope this attempt willprove useful to all practicing sonologists

1.1 CHEST OVERVIEW

Ultrasound is a noninvasive, relatively inexpensive andmost rewarding imaging modality, carries no radiationburden, but not much exploited for evaluation of chestdisease because of basic (inherent) properties of US wavesnot to pass through bony cage and air-filled lungs.However, over a couple of years, US has emerged as auseful tool in evaluating wide range of perplexing clinicalproblems of chest due to presence of fluid in pleuralspace, consolidating or atelectatic lung or even tumor,provide window for US to penetrate and this has helped

in diagnosis of certain conditions or limit the DD ofconditions under consideration

1 Chest wall (Fig 1.1.1): It has helped in diagnosing softtissue abscesses, masses, osteomyelitis, rib tumors andeven fracture where plain X-ray gives only soft tissueswelling or obliteration of costophrenic angle (may bedue to pleural fluid or sometimes by rib tumor) andalso where rib erosion is due to underlying carcinoma.Sometimes, when clinically mass is suspected withfractures, US can be used as a first modality particularly

in children to avoid radiation by getting an X-raychest

Trang 31

2 Mediastinum: Anterior mediastinum can be very evaluated by US through suprasternal route byelevating shoulders and extending the neck This willavoid structures particularly thymus in children Evenparatracheal and hilar adenopathy can be diagnosedespecially in tubercular patients where it is not onlyhelpful in diagnosis but also in follow-up when child

well-is on antitubercular therapy, thus avoiding unnecessaryradiation and getting repeated X-rays

3 Lung parenchyma: It is also helpful in differentiatingcystic lesions of the lung parenchyma like hydatidcyst (Fig 1.1.2) consolidation (Figs 1.1.3 to 1.1.5),collapse and tumor of lung Also differentiates a tumorand pleural fluid/consolidation above the diaphragmfrom (subpulmonic effusion) below the diaphragm

4 Pleura: US is a good modality to differentiate pleurallesions from parenchymal ones It is also helpful in

Fig 1.1.1: Normal lung as seen in transverse section Ribs with

distal shadowing are shown with intercostal muscles The lung pleural interface is seen as an echogenic line

Trang 32

Fig 1.1.2: Lung hydatid seen as anechoic cystic lesion in

transverse scan of lung

lower lobe

color flow on CDFI

Trang 34

diagnosing minimal amount of fluid in pleural cavity,even 5-10 ml of fluid, thus avoiding need of lateraldecubitus film/lateral chest film.

i It also gives the etiology of pleural fluid due to itsappearance as anechoic, hypoechoic, echogenic,presence of debris, nodules and types of septa

ii Anechoic—all transudates are anechoic, however,all anechoic collections are not transudates Aboutone-third of exudative collection tends to beanechoic in the beginning

iii Hypoechoic—usually exudative effusions,empyema and later stages of hemothorax

iv Echogenic—hemothorax or empyema

v Debris—represents settled down pus cell, bloodcells, etc

vi Septations—usually represent process of loculationand fibrosis occurring in pleural effusion Thinclean septa with no or very minimal debris-tubercular pleural effusion However, thick, shaggyirregular septations with debris-pyogenic effusion.vii Pleural nodule/masses (Fig 1.1.6), represent meso-thelioma, metastatic nodule and tuberculomata Inaddition to characteristics septations the thickness

of parietal pleura and combined (parietal + visceral)also give etiological diagnosis As tubercularpleural effusion-parietal pleural thickness varies2-8 mm and combined pleural varies from 4-10

mm In pyogenic pleural effusion-parietal pleuralthickness varies from 5-22 mm and combined 8-27

mm In hemothoraces (post-traumatic) thickirregular mantle of pleura around hypoechoicpleural collection is seen, pleural thickness variesfrom 12-18 mm

Trang 35

Fig 1.1.6: US scans show pulmonary mass with color flow associated

with mild pleural effusion causing compression atelectasis of underlying parenchyma and hepatic metastases

Trang 36

Pleural effusion v/s ascites: Bare area sign—if fluid interface

is abutting the bare area of liver than it is pleural effusionand if it is not than it is ascites

Diaphragmatic crus sign—pleural effusion is lateral and superior to crus of diaphragm while ascites isanteromedial and inferior to crus of diaphragm

postero-5 Intervention: US is very helpful in fine needleaspiration biopsy, pleural tapping, guided pleuralaspiration and tube placement

6 ICU: US is very helpful in critically ill-patients that istrauma and ICU-needs serial X-rays to see day-to-daychanges in lesions like consolidation and lung abscess(Fig 1.1.7), particularly when there is inability toposition the patient as required and usuallysubstandard quality of X-rays

Fig 1.1.7: Lung abscess—a large predominantly hypoechoic SOL

with internal septae and posterior enhancement is seen in lower lobe of right lung Aspiration revealed pus Inversion of diaphragm

is seen

• Good guidance tool

• Repeated evaluation with no radiation cost

Ability to detect abdominal lesions associated withcausative of chest lesion as liver abscesses leading topleural effusion

• Fluid with floating echodensities

• Septations—thick and shaggy (Figs 1.2.1A to C)

• Fibrin strands

• May be anechoic fluid

• Echogenic fluid (Fig 1.2.2)

• Pleural nodules

• Thickened pleura

Causes of Transudative Pleural Effusion

1 Increased hydrostatic pressure

– Congestive heart failure

– SVC obstruction

– Constrictive pericarditis
